How to Make Hot Dog Sauce
- In a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground chuck over medium-high heat. Break it up with a spoon as it cooks. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
- Stir in 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1 hour, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
- Serve generously over your favorite hot dogs in buns. Top with finely diced white onions, if desired.
